Since 2017 New Chelsea Society and the Happy Liver Society have worked together to provide accommodations to liver transplant patients.
In order to be considered for a liver transplant, recipients must demonstrate that they have accommodations within 20km of VGH for 4 months after the procedure. Unfortunately, this creates numerous barriers — financial and otherwise — for patients who live outside of the 20km radius. Through this partnership, we hope to lessen the burden for liver transplant patients and their families.
